5. Use the four mounting holes inside the base to install the dome unit to the mounting
pedestal or the vessel surface.
6. Secure coax every 12-18 inches and seal all openings where the coax enters the vessel
so they are entirely waterproof
(inside and outside of the holes)
.
7. Replace dome cover on base and align holes in dome cover with holes in base. Attach
dome cover with dome cover screws saved earlier. Tighten
ALL
screws securely.
DO NOT APPLY ANY LOCKING COMPOUND TO THE SCREWS!
3. Fill end of coax cable that will connect to the MAIN port on the antenna unit with supplied
dielectric grease. Connect this end of the coax cable to the MAIN port and tighten
connection (
Fig. 9)
.
If using a second (auxiliary) receiver, fill end of second coax cable and connect it to the
unlabeled port. Tighten connection.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN CONNECTIONS.
4. Snap the gel-filled boots around the coax cables, then push flush against the bottom of
the dome unit.
IMPORTANT! The dome cover screws have a pre-applied locking compound on them.
DO NOT APPLY ANY ADDITIONAL LOCKING COMPOUND TO THE SCREWS.
APPLYING ADDITIONAL COMPOUND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY AND MAY CAUSE
CRACKING IN THE DOME COVER.
When re-installing the dome cover, CAREFULLY lower it onto the base, tilting it side to side
as necessary to prevent damaging internal components.

IMPORTANT!
You must fill the ends of the
external coax cables with the
supplied dielectric grease.
Coax connections
should be snug.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN!
Gel-filled boots must sit flush
against bottom of dome unit.
